Does anyone out there have a problem with a bolting horse. Twice now my
horse has bolted on me, taking off in a dead gallop. I think it is a work
evasion tactic on his part. I advanced from a snaffle to a kimberwicke bit
and it had no effect on stopping him! Any suggestions? >> >>
Retraining - longline work, longline work and more longline work. If he is
obedient on the long line you should make more progress under saddle. He
needs to start over. Our mare off the track is now a joy!
